Sublime Text is a cross-platform text editor and source code editor.

Description

You can write Python scripts which use the API to automate text-related tasks.

  • Creating new files
  • Opening existing text
  • Performing complex find-and-replace operations
  • Generating text
  • Launching other programs, for example FTP, and interacting with them

Many free plug-ins are available for Sublime Text.
